Answer 2

To find : consecutive numbers .

Given : The sum of two consecutive numbers is 23.

Solution :

• As per given data we know that sum of two consecutive numbers is 23.
• We know that two consecutive numbers differ by $1$ .
• Therefore , let , $x$ and $x + 1$ be two consecutive numbers .
• According to given condition we write ,

        $x +(x +1 )= 23 \\2x + 1 =23 \\2x = 22 \\x = 11$

• Now , consecutive numbers are :

       $x = 11\\x + 1 = 11 +1 =12$  

Hence , two consecutive numbers are $11$ and $12$ .
